The Complete Collection of the Steampunk Desires series! With this boxed set, you'll get all 5 volumes of the Steampunk Desires series, and save over 60% on buying them individually! Follow along with the strange, sexy journey of the HMS Rapturion, and enjoy the following: Vol. 1 - Eleanor It's the late 19th century, a time of innovation and luxury, and the HMS Rapturion is the finest in Air Cruise Co.'s fleet of luxury airships, providing the very best that the era has to offer. Even the power that drives the ship is innovative, not to mention steamy and sexy, and the role of the propulsion crew is far more intimate than any crew before or hence. Meet Eleanor, the newest member of the HMS Rapturion's propulsion crew, and watch as she discovers just how erotic keeping a ship aloft can be. Vol. 2 - Edwin It takes a lot of energy to keep a luxury airship in the air, and Edwin leads the propulsion team on the HMS Rapturion. When one of his crew has trouble meeting his energy quota, Edwin figure out how to help him get it up - both literally and figuratively! Join Edwin in discovering the unexpected key to this man's success - a fiery vixen named Scarlett, who has some tricks of her own! Vol. 3 - Eloise Life in Victorian England is easy if you're as privileged as Eloise is, but when the call came for new members to join the HMS Rapturion's propulsion crew, she knew there was a better life to be had: a life of buggering all day long - and getting paid to do it! But she finds a much harsher life onboard the luxury airship: uncompromising floor managers and uppity crewmates are just the beginning of her woes. Instead of a life of sleeping with whoever she wants, whenever she wants, she finds herself alone and confused. Life on the HMS Rapturion may not be what she expected, but she soon finds it's exactly what she needs, and it will take a change of heart for her to fit in. Luckily, there is one person who knows exactly what Eloise needs...and is more than happy to give it to her! Vol. 4 - Harriet It's the late 19th century, a time of innovation and luxury, and the HMS Rapturion is the finest in Air Cruise Co.'s fleet of luxury airships, providing the very best that the era has to offer. You may have already heard about the HMS Rapturion, the curious luxury airship powered by the fornication of its propulsion crew, as its fame grows greater by the day. Now meet Harriet, the inventor of the technology that made it all possible. Follow her as she seeks out newer and better ways to bring the ship to life - and maybe it will breathe some life into her, and her desires, as well! Vol. 5 - Nora Now, when a critical part of the propulsion crew of the HMS Rapturion falls ill, Edwin must do all he can to keep the ship aloft. In a desperate move, the captain calls on the passengers for volunteers to lend their bodies to getting the Rapturion safely back to port. Meet Nora, the sexy, brave heroine that might just save the day! Fans of steampunk and adult action will love this spicy hot erotic romance story with strong, independent women and sexy alpha heroes. Warning: This collection contains hot and heavy scenes, spicy descriptions, and sultry times. Read at your own risk...or delight!

The old eddas speak of dreki--fabled creatures that haunt the depths of Iceland's volcanoes and steal away fair maidens. Haakon wants none of such myths. For years he's searched for the beast that stole his wife, desperate to slay the golden dreki and rescue his precious Árja. He has sacrificed everything to find her--including his honor--but now Haakon knows the truth. His entire marriage was a lie. The woman he knew as his wife was no victim, but the dreki herself. And when he finally tracks down the deceitful princess, there will be a reckoning of passion and glory... She came to him on a storm... Long ago, Árdís gave her heart to a mortal man, despite knowing it could only end in tragedy. When her clan summoned her home, she had no choice but to leave--or see her husband pitted against her vicious cousin, Sirius. When Sirius insists upon a betrothal that will help him gain the dreki throne, she is forced to flee--straight into the arms of the now-ruthless dragon hunter she once called husband. But can Haakon ever forgive her deceit? And can she save him from a spurned dreki prince who would see them both dead?

In recent years, geeks have become chic, and the fashion and beauty industries have responded to this trend with a plethora of fashion-forward merchandise aimed at the increasingly lucrative fan demographic. This mainstreaming of fan identity is reflected in the glut of pop culture T-shirts lining the aisles of big box retailers as well as the proliferation of fan-focused lifestyle brands and digital retailers over the past decade. While fashion and beauty have long been integrated into the media industry with tie-in lines, franchise products, and other forms of merchandise, there has been limited study of fans’ relationship to these items and industries. Sartorial Fandom shines a spotlight on the fashion and beauty cultures that undergird fandoms, considering the retailers, branded products, and fan-made objects that serve as forms of identity expression. This collection is invested in the subcultural and mainstream expression of style and in the spaces where the two intersect. Fan culture is, in many respects, an optimal space to situate a study of style because fandom itself is often situated between the subcultural and the mainstream. Collectively, the chapters in this anthology explore how various axes of lived identity interact with a growing movement to consider fandom as a lifestyle category, ultimately contending that sartorial practices are central to fan expression but also indicative of the primacy of fandom in contemporary taste cultures.

Speculative Imperialisms: Monstrosity and Masquerade in Postracial Times explores the(settler) colonial ideologies underpinning the monstrous imaginings of contemporary popular culture in the Britain and the US. Through a close examination of District 9, Avatar, Doctor Who, Planet of the Apes, and steampunk culture, Susana Loza illuminates the durability of (settler) colonialism and how it operates through two linked yet distinct forms of racial mimicry: monsterization and minstrelsy. Speculative Imperialisms contemplates the fundamental, albeit changing, role that such racial simulations play in a putatively postracial and post-colonial era. It brings together the work on gender masquerade, racial minstrelsy, and postcolonial mimicry and puts it in dialogue with film, media, and cultural studies. This project draws upon the theoretical insights of Stuart Hall, Homi K. Bhabha, Edward Said, Philip Deloria, Michael Rogin, Eric Lott, Charles Mills, Falguni Sheth, Lorenzo Veracini, Adilifu Nama, Isiah Lavender III, Gwendolyn Foster, Marianna Torgovnick, Ann Laura Stoler, Anne McClintock, Eric Greene, Richard Dyer, and Ed Guerrero.

A comprehensive resource that will prove invaluable to fashion historians, this book presents a detailed exploration of the breadth of visually arresting, consumer-driven styles that have emerged in America since the 20th century. What are the origins of highly specific denim fashions, such as bell bottoms, skinny jeans, and ripped jeans? How do mass media and popular culture influence today's street fashion? When did American fashion sensibilities shift from conformity as an ideal to youth-oriented standards where clothing could boldly express independence and self-expression? Street Style in America: An Exploration addresses questions like these and many others related to the historical and sociocultural context of street style, supplying both A–Z entries that document specific American street styles and illustrations with accompanying commentary. This book provides a detailed analysis of American street and subcultural styles, from the earliest example reaching back to the early 20th century to contemporary times. It reviews all aspects of dress that were part of a look, considering variations over time and connecting these innovations to fashionable dress practices that emerged in the wakes of these sartorial rebellions. The text presents detailed examinations of specific dress styles and also interrogates the manifold meanings of dress practices that break from the mainstream. This book is a comprehensive resource that will prove invaluable to fashion historians and provide fascinating reading for students and general audiences.
